We have the tricknology to incite fuelled discussion during
DIGITAL CHAOS - a gathering of active minds, a battle to
fight, some beer, indoor and outdoor locations. It is
planned that - over the dinner table, on the dance floor,
in the park and in the pub garden - some of the greatest
Net minds from the response underground will find time to
argue bombastically with each other. The conclusions and
planned projects drawn from such informal encounters will
then be brought back in to lecture theatres, board rooms,
multiplex conference centres, websites, and film sets of
the world for development and inception. It will be a clean
fight between the innocent body and the 'civilised' mind.
